I especially like your Oreste Sinanide's coffins, your crescents and the irregular hexagons. Of course, everyone has to love the sub and the Martin's! Thanks for sharing, I was looking forward to seeing your collection. Once I get a few more new ones, I will be posting some update pictures. Jim (in reply to ukpoisonman) Post #: 8

Also, what's the story behind that cobalt coffin embossed "Bloom of Peaches"??? Ron (in reply to ukpoisonman) Post #: 13

RE: UK collection - 11/7/2005 9:58:17 AM    ukpoisonman   Posts: 26 Joined: 9/21/2005 From: Middle of England Status: offline Hi Ron..... The 'Bloom of Peaches' i believe is a form of Cyanide obtained from the peach stone.... I would like to know what was sold in the 'MUST DIE' bottle (This i bought from Australia)... An interesting statement rather than a warning as usually found on such bottles. The real Gem of the collection is my Tiny blue Crescent. I dug this in 1992 and it inspired me to collect poison bottles. Though the sub is nice, it is also the most expensive purchase i have made for a single item... Thanks, Rob......

RE: UK collection - 11/8/2005 10:33:03 PM    Jim Posts: 2433 Joined: 7/5/2005 From: Lewistown, PA Status: offline The Bloom of Peaches is a very interesting poison bottle. The color and shape would be enough to warn most sensible people of danger, but I'm sure there were some not-so-bright folks who would still associate "peaches" with "food", regardless of the bottle. Imagine some poor guy taking a drink of that. "Mmm, peaches....slurp...GASP...cyanide!"...thud. Hopefully, that never happened, but it really would have defeated the purpose of the bottle if it did! The "MUST DIE" is also a very cool bottle. My guess would be some kind of vermin poison (bugs, rats, etc.). Quite unusual, maybe it was a simple, yet attention-getting sales pitch for the product. Again, great collection. You have some real beauties! Jim (in reply to ukpoisonman) Post #: 15

Also have dug a Bloom of Peaches bottle but have only ever seen a couple of others. (in reply to ukpoisonman) Post #: 16
